Simple as that, I have a few GPUs hanging around and I want to build a GPU node for my kubernetes cluster. I already have one, GPUs are attached and it can do cool things like transcoding plex easy enough, but I’m starting to look to the horizon for my next big projects....

TLDR: If you were building a NAS for 8 HDDs and 1 SSD today, what case would you use?...

First, I would like to thank this community for being an understanding, open-minded and Novice friendly like myself. I have learned a lot in the past few weeks thanks to this community, unlike Reddit’s toxic communities where asking a question is illegal....

I’m trying to figure out how to host one myself. I’m trying to use barvarder and localai. But I am failing due to not enough knowledge and missing instructions. Any advice? did someone succeed with anything? I’d be happy to make other smaller steps at first as well. As long as I get somewhere.

I have calyx hotspot/ tmobile home internet. Ive been having issues with my work Palo Alto Global Protect VPN and tailscale. Neither of them seem to stay connected.
